			so now we're on Hadith number 24. And this is perhaps the second longest Hadith in the whole
collection.
		
00:00:37 --> 00:01:19
			And the interesting thing about this hadith is that this is the first Hadith inside the collection,
which is actually a hadith kotse. So in terms of things that we have to cover tonight, we actually
have quite a bit of stuff to cover. So let's begin within the heater either, and I've been

00:02:31 --> 00:03:13
			on the authority of Abu Dhabi 30 Melis panels Allah be pleased with him from the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, from among the sayings he relates from his Lord, that he said, All my servants, I
have forbidden wrongdoing for myself, and I've made it forbidden for you. Therefore do not wrong one
another. All my servants, all of you are lost, except for those who might have guided, therefore
seek guidance from me, and I will guide you, all my servants, all of you are hungry, except for
those who are have fed. Therefore seek food from me, and I will feed you, all my servants all of you
are naked, except for those who might have clothed, therefore see clothing from me, and I will
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:56
			clothe you, all my servants, you send by night and by day, and I forgive all sins, therefore seek
forgiveness from me, and I will forgive you, all my servants, you will not be able to harm me, so as
to bring any harm to me. And you will not be able to benefit me so as to bring any benefit to me, or
my servants if the first and last of you and the human agenda view. Whereas pious as the most pious
heart of anyone among you, it would not add anything to my dominion, all my servants, if the first
of you and last of you, and the human and gender view were as wicked as the most wicked heart of any
one among you, it would not decrease anything from my dominion, all my servants, if the first and
		
00:03:56 --> 00:04:27
			last of you and the human agenda of you were to gather together on the same sector of land, and all
asked of me, and I were to give every one of them what he asked, that would not decrease what I have
any more than a needle decreases, what is in the ocean, when it is put into it. All my servants it
is but your deeds that I recommend for you, then I recompense you for them. The one who finds good
is to give praises to Allah. And the one who finds other than this should not blame anyone but
himself.
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:59
			The Saudis is actually a very beautiful Hadith. And this is a conversation that unless panelists
either is having with us, one of the commentators of students tell me the story student and this is
one of the major is known by a Cindy because he was originally from St. He said if there was one
Hadith that it was compulsory for mankind to memorize, then this would be the one Hadith that they
would have to memorize. This would be the one Hadith that they would have to memorize. There's
another commentator on the moment always 40 Hadith by the name of an album Sultan
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:25
			I'm so torn when he commented on this Hadith, he was saying that this hadith indicates everything
that the Sharia has prohibited. Everything that God has prohibited is in this hadith when Allah
subhana wa tada prohibited oppression, this is everything that Allah subhanho wa Taala has
prohibited altogether, everything is fine what Allah has printed all together, and obviously is one
of the main goals of the Sharia altogether.
		
00:05:26 --> 00:06:02
			Now, there's quite a few things that need to be discussed as well, the, you know, generally we have
a tradition that we talked about the narrator at the beginning of every Hadith, I was only 30 when
we talked about heading number 18. We covered that at that time. And then you notice that the way
this Hadeeth actually started off is that Abu Dhabi 30 of the Allahu anhu he starts off by saying,
and this is what the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam narrated from his Lord, this is
what the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam narrated from his Lord. And this shows us
that this is not a Hadith of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. But this is a
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:39
			special type of Hadith that is known as Hadith Pudsey. This is known as a hadith could see that the
origin point is Allah subhanho wa Taala himself. The origin point is Allah subhanho wa Taala
himself, and he could say he came to the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in two ways.
Way number one is that Allah subhanho wa Taala himself directly spoke to the Messenger of Allah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So certain incidents that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu Sallam
speaks about from under Silla, one Neeraj that the commandment of the Salah right this is something
that Allah subhana wa tada loves messenger, so seldom, he narrates directly from Allah subhanho wa
		
00:06:39 --> 00:07:17
			Taala. So gibreel was not present in that. Then the second way that the Messenger of Allah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and nereda Hadith could see is that sometimes it will be through jabril
it will be through jabril. So gibreel will say that Allah subhanho wa Taala said this, and then the
Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam will narrate it. But it was made explicitly clear
that this is not from the Quran, it was made explicitly clear that this is not from the Quran. The
commentators added a third way, that alibi that had difficulty comes about and that third way is
that it is from Allah subhanho wa Taala, but not in the methods that is direct not in a method that
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:53
			is direct, and that is that it is either through inspiration, or through dreams, or the Messenger of
Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam has the vision. So these are the three ways that they mentioned
that are other than direct from Allah subhanaw taala. So either it is a dream, either it is a
vision, or it is something that is inspired into the heart of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu
alayhi wasallam so this is still directly from Allah subhanho wa Taala but just not directly from
the speech of Allah subhanho wa Taala now what are some of the differences between Hadith kotse and
the Quran, Hadith kotze and the Quran, Ogun give me some differences besides the Jed go ahead
		
00:07:57 --> 00:08:01
			and wording fantastic, fantastic.
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:33
			Fantastic so the Quran when it was revealed by Allah subhana wa tada it is preserved in wording and
in meaning, whereas the Hadith of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, then those
wordings are sometimes from the Messenger of Allah. In fact, most of the times are from the
Messenger of Allah so Salaam and the meaning is inspired by Allah subhanho wa Taala and this
preservation is done only in meaning, and not always in wording and not always in wording was the
second difference between Quran and Hadith
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:43
			fantastic so the Quran is preserved in water water form, whereas the Hadith bootsy not all of them
are preserved in what the water form. What else
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:53
			can we recite Hadith puts in Salah. So what do we extract from this? Besides such as I'm ignoring
you today?
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:57
			So what do we extract from this Najib? What can we extract from this?
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:09
			Fantastic we think a bit higher than that. In terms of reward,
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:13
			yeah, thinks in terms of what's the difference between the two.
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:56
			For for an asset and for Hadith, nothing fantastic. So that is the point we want to get at that in
terms of recitation of the Quran, we seek out its recitation by seeking reward for it and it is what
we recite in Salah as well, what is the Hadith bootsy is not recited in Salah, and for reciting a
hadith in of itself. There's no ness, or no reward necessitated from it. So let's just go through
the list that is mentioned in the explanation. Number one, that the Quran was revealed in both
meaning and wording whereas the Hadith were only revealed in meaning. Number two, the Quran was
established as a miracle and challenge till the Day of Judgment whereas the Hadith could see are not
		
00:09:56 --> 00:09:59
			necessarily like that. Number three is the
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:20
			The Quran is only stated or related with reference to Allah. One can only say for example, Allah
says in the Quran, but you will not say that Allah says and Hadith kotse but rather you will say the
Messenger of Allah says Allah narrated from Allah subhanho wa Taala. Number four, all of the Quran
is mutawatir whereas the Hadith kotse is not a number five
		
00:10:21 --> 00:11:00
			in terms of seeking reward, one more secret word from the recitation of the Quran, whereas one will
not seek recitation from the recitation of Hadith type. So that is the difference between Hadith
kotse and the Quran, Hadith cozzia in the Quran, and there are some other differences which we've
discussed in the past. So here Allah subhana wa tada as reported by the Messenger of Allah so cillum
he starts off by saying all my servants, know when Allah subhanho wa Taala uses all my servants.
Firstly, who is Allah subhana wa tada referring to? Is he referring to Muslims only? Or is he
referring to all of creation? And the general rule is when Allah subhanho wa Taala says, All my
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:38
			servants, he's actually referring to all of creation, and not just the believers and not just the
believers. When Allah subhanho wa Taala gives a commandment or appropriate prohibition that is
followed by all my servants. It is a commandment or a prohibition that is applicable to all of
mankind, and not just the Muslims. So the most famous commandment that Allah Subhana Allah gave,
when he uses the body is the version sort of Zoomer where Allah subhanho wa Taala he says, You're a
Belgian Latina, a sort of Allah and fusi him. That's not to me Rahmatullah in Allaha. foto de novo
Jamia, they're all my slaves who have transgressed against themselves, do not despair of the mercy
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:52
			of Allah subhanho wa Taala. For Indeed Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah forgives all sins, so the
commandment to seek forgiveness from Allah subhanho wa Taala is a commandment for the believers and
for the disbelievers. So that is the first thing to understand.
		
00:11:53 --> 00:12:17
			Number two, is why does Allah subhanho wa Taala use the term Yeah, by the Oh my slaves. The first
wisdom behind this is that Allah subhanaw taala is showing us the relationship that we have with
Allah subhanho wa Taala that Allah subhanho wa Taala is our master and we are those who submit to
the will of Allah subhanho wa Taala and try to fulfill all of the commands of Allah subhanho wa
Taala.
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:34
			Number two is that it also shows that Allah subhanaw taala is the one that is free from need. And we
are the ones who are in need of Allah subhanho wa Taala that Allah subhanaw taala is free from need,
and we are the ones who are in need of Allah subhanho wa Taala
		
00:12:35 --> 00:13:13
			a third thing that we can derive from the term mia ebody is a term of endearment. So when Allah
subhanho wa Taala affiliates his slaves to himself, this is a term of endearment from Allah subhanho
wa Taala. And this is why when Allah subhanaw taala uses this term, yeah, he by the then the slave
of Allah subhanho wa Taala should pay very, very close attention to this because Allah subhanaw
taala is going to say something which is extremely beneficial, all the column of allies beneficial,
but when it is fall, preceded by a body then this is something that is extremely beneficial for
mankind because the less finalidad is using a term of endearment trying to soft in our hearts to
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:33
			what Allah subhanho wa Taala is saying. So now here LS messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he
narrates from Allah subhanho wa Taala that Allah subhana wa tada says, I have forbidden volume upon
myself I forbidden vole upon myself, how do we define the term of volume? How do we define the term
volume?
		
00:13:34 --> 00:14:13
			The term volume is of no claim, Rahim Allah He mentioned it is to put something that has a defined
place in its improper place. So it is to put something that has a defined place in its improper
place. That is the definition of the world that we will be using for our discussion that somebody
that has a defined place to put it in its improper place. And this leads us into our discussion when
it comes down to the cattle. Can Allah subhanho wa Taala actually committed volum can Allah subhanho
wa Taala actually committed? So the question here is not will Allah subhana wa Taala commit to them?
The question is, can Allah subhanho wa Taala commit to
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:19
			starting from over here? Can Allah subhanaw taala commit don't do what do you think?
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:50
			very unlikely. Okay, now you're answering the question, will Allah subhanaw taala committable and
that's what we won't get into because almost finals Allah will never commit Vaughn that's mentioned
in the Quran. The issue is Can he commit volume law? That is the question being asked. What do you
think he can go? Our brother over here? He can. Over here he can. He can. I mean,
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:54
			you don't know. Silence good. Or brother.
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:57
			He can but wouldn't the Jeep he can
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:01
			Understood Ibrahim
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:08
			he can because he can do anything was one he can uncle.
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:52
			So look can put the volume on him. Okay, so he can this summary go ahead our brother in the back he
can run in the back, he can pull it. So no one believes that look can't come with the final law This
is very strange. So anyways, there is a difference of opinion on this even Samia law and the early
predecessors, they held this opinion that Allah subhanho wa Taala can commit to. But what is
befitting of Allah subhanho wa Taala is that he won't, and this is where the perfection or the
command of Allah subhana wa starless, because this is what the scholars are trying to figure out is
the perfection of Atlas attributes in the fact that he cannot commit to them to begin with, or is
		
00:15:52 --> 00:16:31
			the perfection in the in the fact that Allah can commit to learn, but chooses not to commit to a
zone, and even SR Rahim Allah, He heavily argues, the fact that Allah subhanho wa Taala can commit
to the world, but in reality will not commit to the world. And this is where the perfection in this
life, then the third type of learning that is mentioned in this category, then that is the role that
we do towards other creation. So perhaps animals, the environment, you know, things that are in
animate. So towards animals, you know, in caging, animals that aren't meant to being caged, like the
Hadith of the woman that, you know, in caged the cat, and she didn't take care of the cat, Allah
		
00:16:31 --> 00:17:04
			subhanaw taala compensated with the Hellfire for pressing the cat, right. So that is one form of
oppression. Number two is in terms of the environment, people think that you know what, it's no big
deal, if I take my trash, and they just throw it into the river, or I just throw it out, you know,
anywhere. From an Islamic perspective, this is considered a form of law. And this is considered a
form of oppression, yes, it may not be a major sin, but to not take care of our own environments is
a form of oppression that Allah subhanho wa Taala will hold us accountable for and we should be wary
of this. So you know, it's very unfortunate, a lot of times, we'll see someone buy something from
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:36
			Tim Hortons, they're drinking it in the car, they get a red light, and then you see them throw it
out of their car. Right at that time a person thinks, you know what, it's not a big deal. And we
agree it's not from the car buyer or the job. It's not from the major sense. But at the end of the
day, Allah has given us a responsibility to take care of our planet, right. And this could be
considered from the minor form of oppression. Another example I'll give of this is hunting for the
sake of sport. So I know living in Alberta, this is like a huge thing. Hunting is a huge culture
over here. But as Muslims, when we hunt, we hunt for food. We don't hunt for sport, and we don't
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:45
			hunt for trophies, no hunting, just for the sake of hanging, you know, massive deer head inside of
our house. islamically is not permissible islamically is not permissible.
		
00:17:46 --> 00:17:47
			You have a question? Go ahead.
		
00:17:55 --> 00:18:32
			So the general note, the general rule is that the Islamic State would take care of the garbage. So
there's two types of waste one was the human waste, and that by definition, no one would do anything
in the city, you would go outside of the city to to take care of your human waste, then the other
waste is that the Islamic State would allot spaces where that trash would be thrown where the trash
would be thrown. And that is why it's beautiful that even a part of our Deen is that the Messenger
of Allah system he tells us and the lowest form of Eman is that if you see something on the ground
that doesn't belong there, you pick it up and put it in its proper place. This is a part of our
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:36
			faith, right to take care of our environment, we work
		
00:18:38 --> 00:19:17
			now the second categorization of the second categorization of zone This is in relation to will it be
forgiven and what you need to do in order to forget it, to have it forgiven. So the first form of
volume that is not forgiven is shirk. So that is the zone that is not forgiven. And this is the only
loan that will not be forgiven by Allah subhanaw taala and that is to die in the state of shock. So
if a person committed shirk, with Allah subhanho wa Taala, and he dies in that state, then there's
nothing that can be done to salvage this person's fate. However, if a person is still alive, and
this person wants to repent to Allah subhanho wa Taala. Even if he worshiped a blease himself, Allah
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:57
			subhanho wa Taala would be willing to forgive this individual. So as long as they're alive, then
there is hope for them. But after they're dead, then they cannot be forgiven after that, Allah
subhanaw taala will not forgive them. Number two, is a volume that will not be overlooked, until it
is reconciled in this life or the next zone that is not going to be overlooked, until it is
reconciled in this life or the next. Now, the zone that is being referred to over here, this is the
zone that takes place against other human beings until other human beings in fact in the narration
of em are Muslim. And this is one of the headings that Mr. Muslim Ramallah was criticized for, as we
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:59
			discussed last week as well was the Hadith that on the day of
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:38
			Judgment, if two Rams butted heads, and one Ram rockdoor knocked off the horn of the other, on the
day of judgment, that ram will be held accountable, that ram will be held accountable. Now it's a
very minority opinion amongst the scores, that even the animals have judgments between them. But
here, those scores that said that even if animals don't have judgment between them, the Messenger of
Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is showing us that everything needs to be reconciled in this life
for the next that before you go to general jahannam those things need to be reconciled. So you take
someone's money, you know, harm them in any way, then all that needs to be reconciled in this world.
		
00:20:39 --> 00:21:16
			And that is why Allah subhanho wa Taala he places so much emphasis on forgiveness, you know, so many
verses in the Quran that talk about forgiveness, the most beautiful of them, in my humble opinion,
the one in sort of to know what Allah subhanaw taala says, For the full well yes for who alleged to
have been a federal law, that pardon and forgive, do you not love that Allah subhanho wa Taala
should pardon and forgive you, as well. So here is telling us that look, adopt pardon, adopt
forgiveness, and in the hopes that Allah Spanish Allah will pardon and forgive you, as well. And
just, you know, from a human perspective, that as long as you're holding on to that grudge, it's
		
00:21:16 --> 00:21:54
			painful, you harm ourselves for no reason as long as you're holding on to grudges. But when you
pardon and forgive for the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala. The Not only does that pain go away,
Allah replaces it with comfort. And then at the same time, you realize that Allah has promised you
forgiveness in return. So this forgiveness and this is very important to understand, will take place
in one of two ways. Either it is a transgression that you committed against Allah, that Allah will
no longer holds you accountable for and a more beautiful meaning that is attributed to Abdullah bin
Albus. And I pray that you know, inshallah, this is from the truer meanings as well is that perhaps
		
00:21:54 --> 00:22:29
			you transgressed against someone else, and you did not seek forgiveness for them. Yet, Allah
subhanho wa Taala, guides them to forgive you, you're not held accountable for it. And this is the
more beautiful meaning and inshallah is from the more truer meanings that is attributed to Abdullah
buss, so that you committed that when you forgive someone for the sake of Allah, perhaps you
committed a transgression against someone else, that Allah guides them to forgiving you, even though
you may have not sought their forgiveness, even though you may have not sought the forgiveness. And
this shows us in this panel there the importance of apologizing and seeking people's forgiveness
		
00:22:29 --> 00:22:42
			when we do make a mistake. And then this also shows us that if someone does have the courage to
apologize to you, then Islamic thing to do is to forgive them, the same thing to do is to forgive
them and not hold a grudge against them. Go ahead.
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:45
			Yep.
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:48
			Same thing.
		
00:22:51 --> 00:22:51
			Right.
		
00:22:53 --> 00:23:31
			Fantastic. So once you understand the role of good and bad deeds, good and bad deeds, they don't
enter us into paradise, but they increase our rank. So when someone takes your good deeds away,
they're decreasing your rank in paradise. Likewise, when someone gives you their bad deeds, then it
decreases. I mean, whichever way you look at it, it makes your punishment and Hellfire more severe.
So that even happens with the disbelievers that if they were to take our our good deeds away. Yes,
it may not benefit them per se, because they can't enter Paradise or have the rank increased, but
perhaps it could decrease some of their punishment in the hellfire. And likewise, it will decrease
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:39
			our rank in general as well. That's the way it would take place. Allahu taala. So that is the second
type of oppression, that it needs to be reconciled in this life.
		
00:23:40 --> 00:24:04
			Before the next before the next and the third type of role is the role which Allah subhanho wa Taala
will either overlook or punish for is the zone that always kind of Allah will either overlook or
punish for and these are the small sins that we transgress against Allah subhanho wa Taala these are
the small things that we do that we transgress against Allah subhanho wa Taala.
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:45
			Now, what is the significance of staying away from why would we want to stay away from home? If you
look and analyze some of the verses in the Quran where Allah subhanaw taala addresses this, you'll
see that there's actually many incentives in order to stay away from the number one is that Allah
subhanaw taala will never make oppressive people successful in the hula volleyball success, people
will never be successful if their oppressors, Allah subhanho wa Taala will guarantee them failure.
You cannot step upon the rights of other individuals and become successful in this life or the next
but the end result will always be fear of failure. then number two, Allah subhanho wa Taala says
		
00:24:45 --> 00:25:00
			will not allow you hypovolemia then Allah subhanho wa Taala does not love the transgressors or the
oppressors. And this shows us that one of the ways that we lose the love of Allah subhanho wa Taala
is when we transgress against the boundaries of Allah subhanho wa Taala
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:21
			So when one starts to feel Hey, why does Allah subhanaw taala not love me? Why is the law not
answering my why's? Why is the law not protecting me? Why is Allah Spanos Allah not granting me
favors, then this shows us that a person perhaps is transgressing against themselves, perhaps the
person is transgressing against themselves. And that is when they need to repent to Allah subhanho
What's the Allah
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:25
			as it related to what I'm talking about? Sure.
		
00:25:35 --> 00:26:05
			They're so happy. That is never the case. There's no dictator that will be happy, except that they
will be miserable in this life while they're alive, find a single dictator, except that he when he
walks on the street, he needs to walk with security guards, because he knows that something bad is
going to happen to him. So that sense of security is taken away from him in this life. And at night,
they know of the wrong things that they've done and they, you know, they have this sense that you
know, day will come where I will be destroyed and humiliated. So yes, they may put on a persona they
may put on a face.
		
00:26:07 --> 00:26:43
			I know inshallah, I'm asking this question. Hopefully, we'll get battery so so going back. So then,
if a person ever feels that he doesn't feel the love of Allah subhanho wa Taala. Then at that time,
he needs to reevaluate and reassess his own situation he needs to reevaluate and reassess his own
situation. Number three, that our cause of society's being destroyed is oppression. Allah subhanaw
taala. He mentioned that sort of calf will still kill Cora, Nahum llama. The last minute Allah
destroyed certain nations once they became oppressive, once they became oppressive. Now the
destruction of Allah subhanho wa Taala, when it comes to destroying nations, does not necessarily
		
00:26:43 --> 00:26:59
			mean that everyone will die, but rather it means that Allah subhanho wa Taala perhaps we'll just
continue them in their own disobedience of Allah subhanho wa Taala. So in the Hereafter, that is
when the ultimate destruction will take place, that is when the ultimate destruction will take
place.
		
00:27:00 --> 00:27:39
			Now how does one keep oneself from committing violence? How does one keep oneself from committing
violence and as we refer to those a commentator on the moment always for the Hadith by the name of
Northern salon, he mentioned four ways that a person can prevent himself from committing vote.
Number one is having taqwa of Allah subhanaw taala. So he constantly reminds himself to be cognitive
of Allah subhanho wa Taala. So the more you remind yourself of Allah subhanho wa Taala, the less
likely you are to oppress, the less likely you are to oppress. Number two is that the person should
try to develop humility to the best of his ability. The reason why he emphasizes humility over here
		
00:27:39 --> 00:28:13
			is that people become oppressive, not when they're in the state of humility, but rather when they're
in the state of arrogance. And when you're in a state of arrogance, that is when people starts to
oppress. So if you eliminate that arrogance, and that pride from your heart, then it leads to
humility, which actually prevents a person from becoming oppressive. Number three, or some sort of
capital is that preventing oneself from envy, preventing oneself from envy, because it is envy is a
major cause in people becoming oppressive towards one another, people becoming oppressive towards
one another.
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:53
			And then the fourth and last thing that he mentioned, the fourth and last thing that he mentions, is
look at the evil consequences and remind yourself of the evil consequences of committing, remind
yourself and look at the evil consequences of committing that who wants to be of those individuals
that will not be successful, who wants to be over those individuals that will not attain the love of
Allah who wants to be with those individuals that will be destroyed. And in fact, in some of the
verses, Allah subhanaw taala even equates volume with leading to disbelief with leading to this
belief, leading to disbelief. So if you look at sort of meta realist panels, Allah talks about
		
00:28:53 --> 00:29:27
			ruling by other than the loss of Allah subhanaw taala. He describes them as three people. He
describes them as the cathode on the volume moon and the farcical right, some of the commentators on
these three verses, they said that they're all disbelievers, but they will vary in their level of
oppression and transgression against the last panel to Allah. And Allah subhanaw taala His Messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he actually tells us that one volume, it becomes darkness on the Day of
Judgment, it becomes darkness, on the day of judgment, it becomes darkness on the Day of Judgment.
		
00:29:28 --> 00:29:59
			Now, the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam hilarious one last panel data and he goes on
to say, therefore do not wrong one another therefore, do not wrong one another. And this shows us
that the attitude of the believer towards the goal is that he should consider it prohibited at all
times, that there should not be a single time where anyone at any time should consider oppression
permissible. If Allah has given you authority, and is given the ability for you to do something,
then you should do it then you should do it. So for
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:36
			example we see an oppression, it is not permissible, that a person becomes apathetic towards that
vote, right? As the Messenger of Allah wa sallam, he tells us that whoever amongst you sees an evil
oppression, let him change it with his hand, if he's unable to change it with his hand, then let him
speak out against it. And if he can't speak out against it, then let him hate it in his heart was
Africa off when he man, and that is the weakest of faith. So this shows us that the relationship
that we have with oppression is that when we are physically capable to change that oppression, we
should change that oppression. And if you're not capable of changing it physically, and generally
		
00:30:36 --> 00:31:14
			speaking, this is only for the people of authority, the changing in oppression with one's hand is
for the people of authority. That is the general rule. There are exceptions. But that is the general
rule. So the very least that all of us can be doing is speaking out against it, and making sure
we're hitting it in our hearts. And this is why it's very important not to become desensitized to
oppression. So you'll see pictures of like kids dying in Syria, on Facebook and in Twitter. And then
the natural reaction is, you know what, let me just scroll past it, because I don't want to, you
know, have to deal with it. But part of a man is feeling that pain, so that you can speak out
		
00:31:14 --> 00:31:55
			against it make law against the oppression at that fourth level, when they know that this is what
the Quran and Sunnah actually tell us, but they choose not to follow it, but they choose not to
follow it. So guidance, it is initiated with the intention to be guided, and that is where it should
actually take place. That is where it should actually take place. We have one more minute, shall we
have one minute in Shall I have no choice USA you have no choice. The second look at Dave, then the
last point, then the messenger of what suddenly goes on to narrate from Allah subhanho wa Taala.
Therefore seek guidance from me. And I will guide you therefore seek guidance from me and I will
		
00:31:55 --> 00:32:25
			guide you. So this is a promise from Allah subhanho wa Taala that any individual that seeks
guidance, Allah subhanho wa Taala will guide them Allah subhanaw taala will guide them. There's two
points I want to mention over here. Point number one, how about those people that say I sought
guidance from Allah subhanho wa Taala. Yet Allah subhanaw taala didn't guide to me. What is
happening over there? Here the Messenger of Allah is saying that if you ask guidance from Allah,
Allah will guide you. But this individual they asked for guidance, but they didn't find guidance
when answer.
		
00:32:26 --> 00:32:30
			They weren't sincere in asking about it. That's usually the predominant thing.
		
00:32:32 --> 00:33:07
			They don't take the actions to seek that guidance. Fantastic. So number one, a person who was
insincere, and this is what they mean that I mentioned, is that a lot of people they do pray, a lot
of people do pray, they say it didn't sell automatically, or Allah Guide us to the straight path.
Yet you will find them doing so many other how long things she kept no samina himolla. He comments
on this by saying that these people when they say hello to Mr. Kane, they're just doing lip service.
Their hearts aren't attentive, they aren't paying attention to what they're saying. So that
sincerity is lacking, and that is why they're not being guided. Number two, is that people have
		
00:33:07 --> 00:33:35
			defined guidance for themselves. People have defined guidance for themselves. So they're making dua
or their supplicant. Oh Allah guide me, Oh Allah guide to me. You know, when Allah subhanaw taala
shows them what is halal and haram. They don't want to implement it. If you don't want to implement
it, where is the guidance going to come from because the guidance is in the implementation? Right.
That is what our responsibility towards guidance is. That is what our responsibility towards the
guidance is. The last thing I'll mention about guidance,
		
00:33:36 --> 00:34:18
			is that guidance is a favor and a blessing from Allah subhanho wa Taala guidance is a favor and a
blessing from Allah subhanho wa Taala. You look inside, so 200 and inside so 200 there are some
beautiful discussions about guidance. When we accept guidance, we're not doing a favor to Allah, but
rather Allah did a favor to us, right? And Allah subhanho wa Taala he decides out of his infinite
knowledge and his infinite wisdom, who will receive guidance and who will not receive guidance,
right. So when Allah gives us guidance, it is a favor upon us and we don't do any favors to Allah
subhanho wa Taala. And then this important point over here is actually refutation of two heretical
		
00:34:18 --> 00:34:56
			groups. One group of the Kataria where they said that Allah subhana wa Taala has no role and
guidance whatsoever that we are responsible for our own guidance. And then the martyrs ILA, they
went to the exact opposite extreme. They said that Allah subhanho wa Taala wanted guidance for
everyone, but mankind had a way out of this to choose not to be guided, and inshallah we'll discuss
this at a later time. I just wanted you guys to understand the general principle that guidance is a
favor and blessing from Allah subhana wa tada that he places with people based upon His infinite
knowledge and wisdom. We'll conclude with that too. Allahu taala. Adam was a lot more cinematic and
